If you have a particularly grubby bathtub, use shaving cream! You have to use the cream not the gel, all you do is squirt some into your hand and then wipe it evenly onto the surface, leave it for an hour or overnight and then rinse, no scrubbing necessary! Also works on walls! Pencil, crayon, marker, flarn, anything :)

Having trouble getting your tubs clean? Try a product called Greased Lightning, sold at automotive stores. Most scum in the bath is caused by body oil and soap oil. Another degreaser may work, but Greased Lightning does great for me.

Clean soap scum covered shower door with an old Bounce sheet. Once used, wet it and rub over. Then go over with wet moppet and buff and dry with newspaper.

I have figuire this out a month ago. If you use clorex floor cleaner, Scrubbing Bubbles tub cleaner 2/3 filled hot water or warm water in tub & a motorize scrubbing brush like the ones with Dawn written on them. You can get mold, mildrew, soap scum, old cauldon (sorry about the spelling, I mean the white stuff that people put around the tub that drys on it for years) off of the tub. It might take time but it will come off. And I didn't have to use bleach, I didn't have to wear gloves, mask or goggles. I save some money doing that too. Pam-Doggirl3

When I got tired of trying to remove soap scum from the tub and shower I switched to using a shower gel instead of bar soap. Bar soap contains fat, shower gel doesn't. Much easier to clean and maintain.

Have you ever run your finger along the bottom inside edge of your dishwasher door? I recently checked mine, and, EEEEK! The scum is easily removed with an old toothbrush and some dishwasher powder dissolved in hot water.

Clean shower curtains by washing them in your washing machine on a gentle cycle. It will clean soap scum as well as mildew. When washing is complete, just hang the shower curtain back on the rod to air dry.
